Mythos & Marginalia

2015 – 2025: a decade of days

  • understand

    I can’t explain
    what they don’t want to hear,
    and they don’t want to
    understand any more
    than they have to.

    They cannot
    see beyond the
    bounds of possibilities.

    Communication barriers
    of the mind, in time
    become more.

  • valentines or not

    it is

    what it is

    it is

    what we do

     

    we

    love

     

    from a distance

    and at close range

     

    our methods

    our madness

    from the pure

    to the strange

     

    we do

    what we do

    regardless

    of the season

     

    we love

    yes

    we do

     

    for all kinds

    of reasons

     

    even today

    valentines or not

     

    we love

    as we do

     

    love is what

    we have got

  • do more

    Could we not
    do more?

    Can we not
    be more?

    We all have
    work to do.

  • unsettled

       Full Moon or not,
         behind the clouds or
       otherwise.
       Even if you miss
        the Moon, in any phase,
    you cannot deny its power.
    Take time to acknowledge
         what you didn’t see
       or wish you did.
         The Moon keeps us
    confident in our direction,
       as unsettled as
       it may be.

  • get there

    How will you get there
    when the going’s not good,
    when you can’t get around
    as you normally would?

    Be it weather or traffic
    or a delay on Line One,
    how will you do it
    if you can’t get it done?

    Where are you going, or
    are you along for the ride?
    How will you get there,
    or know you’ve arrived.
